Adobe Suite wont launch

I am running Adobe Creative Suite 3 for Mac OS 10.5.8. Yesterday all of the Adobe CS3 programs would only partially launch. I have tried repairing and uninstalling/reinstalling them and nothign seems to work. What should I do?

Hi,
Did you have the suite installed on a different computer previously?
Adobe is identifying that the software is installed on 2 different computers already and hence the message.
You can use this link to deactivate your software on any other computer it has been installed on :
Deactivate your Software
In case you don't have it installed on any other computer or don't have access to the computers' its been installed on, please contact the Support team to have this fixed. Use the below link to contact support:
Contact Adobe Support.
After clicking on the link, click on "I need help activating or deactivating my software".
You will have the option to chat with a support agent and will also have a list of phone numbers to the right.
Do let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks

Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional cannot be launched at this time. You must launch at least one other suite component (such as Adobe Photoshop) before launching Acrobat 8 Professional

Hi,
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when trying to open CS2.

Premiere Elements 11 wont launch on my MacBookPro

I installed Premiere Elements 11 today and it wont launch.
The launch window doesn't get past:
Loading SmartSoundAdobePlugin.bundle
before I get the Adobe Premiere Elements 11 quit unexpectedly; report.
I click re-open and the problem persists.
My System Profile:
Model: MacBookPro10, Intel Core i7, 2.6 GHz, 16 GB,
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000, Intel HD Graphics 4000, Built-In, 512 MB
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M, PCIe, 1024 MB
Memory Module: BANK 0/DIMM0, 8 GB, DDR3, 1600 MHz,
Memory Module: BANK 1/DIMM0, 8 GB, DDR3, 1600 MHz,
OS X version 10.8.4
I have re-installed twice and received no installation errors.
Would appreciate any tips on what I am doing wrong.

Good on you Steve,
and thank you.
In addition to following your two tips, I came across some additional information related to fonts. I validate the font library and reloaded it. I was then able to open Premiere Elements 11; SonicFire plug-in still didn't work.
I found some information in the forum on a related SonicFire patch - installed the patch and everything is working fine. Turned on Retina display and life is good.
You're worth your weight in gold - thanks again.
Regards,
Clem

In design wont launch

My in design wont launch it wouldn't update before I have uninstalled and re installed several times it fails to launch now my dream weaver won't launch the only products that work from the cloud is my Photoshop, bridge, and illustrator. Plus I cannot get a hold
of adobe on the phone and also on the chat I waited a few hours yesterday and no one got to me. I will be demanding a full refund if no one gets to me soon I have assignments that are becoming due and I am a little upset that I can get more support from the guys over at gimp and kdenlive who sell there products for no free.

Adobe Speedgrade wont open!

Adobe Speedgrade wont open! All I get is to the splash screen and then nothing but a grayed out window. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program with no luck. Is this happening to anyone else?

Would help to have a clue about your situation ... so the basic details of OS/CPU/RAM/GPU/vRAM, and the exact version you are running of Sg would be of use. As to version, build numbers are preferable, lower left corner of the "About" screen, you might have to scroll down to get to it. Will be something like 7.2 or the current 8.2x51.
Next ... uninstalling the Adobe programs with the system OS tools isn't often useful. Adobe has their "CC Cleaner Application" ...
Adobe CC Cleaner App
https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
Which deletes also some of the preference & startup files that system uninstallers typically don't touch.
Also, holding alt/shift down while starting your program might be able to bypass a file that could be causing the problem, forcing Sg to create a new one.

Crash of my computer - How do I re-install the Adobe suite cc ?

Hello,
I need your help with the re-installation of the Adobe suite cc on a second computer.
My main computer has been out of service for several weeks. It can't be repaired and returned to service, forcing me to use my second backup computer on which I installed the Adobe suite.
I purchased a new computer that will become my main computer. How do I install the Adobe suite on new computer since it is impossible for me to restart my old computer to disable the Adobe suite?
Thank you for your help and understanding,
Regards,

Hi MATREKKER317,
I have checked your subscription, right now the subscription is active on two machines.
1. Pease launch any CC product from the second computer in which you can acccess the CC, go to help menu & "Deactivate".
2.Next install CC on 3rd computer,activate it.
3.Please log out & log back in of the ccdesktop app in the machine from where you had deactivated, launch any product, click on "license this software" prompt, sign & activate it again.
Hope it works, in case you have any issue, please contact Adobe at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6.

Application manager wont launch

I just used the application manager earllier today to download CS6, now it wont launch. I dont want to reinstall. The application manager is signed in as a different login, not the login I used to purchase creative cloud, but I cant sign out of the application manager. Ive read the other threads on this problem but none of them were helpful. What can I do to get this thing going?

The Apps page https://creative.adobe.com/apps is currently unavailable. This is also impacting the list of applications in the Adobe Application Manager, and being able to download an application even if it is listed. We are actively investigating the issue to restore service as quickly as possible. We will provide updates on the Adobe Forums.

Software wont launch.

I got adobe photoshop and premier elements for students for my pc running windows 8.1 and 64 bit, and it wont launch. I click on the icons and the i get to choose whether to launch the organizer or video editor, but nothing happens when i click.

Can you launch directly from the executable file?
Go to:
C: Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 13
Find Photoshop Elements Editor (the application) and double click on it.

App wont launch when i click on it?

I have downloaded the creative cloud and then installed the 30 day free trial of premier pro, the app says it has installed, however when i click on the icon for premier pro or on the name of the app it wont launch, i have tried uninstalling it and installing it again but have got the same results.

Premiere pro CC application is not compatible with 32 bit computer , hence you are unable to launch it.
Apps like After Effects. Premiere pro requires 64 bit support processor.
